Lieutenant David Stirling almost died in a failed parachute jump last week, but the accident has made him more determined than ever to create a special new unit to fight the Germans.

Realising he must gain permission for his new project, he stages an audacious break-in at Cairo's Army GHQ during this week's episode, in the hope of presenting his idea to General Auchinleck.
